3D Realms Sued Over Failed Duke Nukem Forever Plans

Posted by Soulskill on Thursday May 14, 2009 @11:36PM from the ponzi-would-be-proud dept.

Take-Two Interactive has now sued 3D Realms over the cancellation of Duke Nukem Forever . Take-Two did not provide continuous funding for the game, but they did pay $12 million for the publishing rights to the game. A Bloomberg report quotes Take-Two's complaint as saying that 3D Realms "continually delayed the completion date" and "repeatedly assured Take-Two and the video-gaming community that it was diligently working toward competing development of the PC Version" of the game. (The complaint refers to 3D Realms as part of Apogee Software, Ltd., not to be confused with Apogee Software, LLC, the publisher behind the still-forthcoming Duke Nukem Trilogy.)

The expectation was killin me, it's like a girlfriend that always teases but never puts out.
Just to clarify, that's not a girlfriend, and she's not teasing... It's a girl who doesn't like you that much and is trying not to hurt your feelings.

"Take Two needs to STFU imo."
